User reviews

Doesn’t work!

Every time I try to open a paper, the app crashes.

Must provide Landscape View

This app is great but MUST be developed to allow for a landscape view for iPad as I use a keypad keyboard and therefore cannot easily use what would otherwise be the perfect solution for me. It’s a 5-star app with landscape mode. Please sort this ASAP!

Please Update

This is normally quite a good app but it’s constantly closing when trying to open it.
So maybe an update is required

Worse than last app.

This app is just a glorified pdf. Need landscape version ASAP for iPad
the former commons papers app, allowed you to read papers in clean format and landscape.

View

I am a member of The House of Lords and really like this app - its very convenient, not least because it enables you to carry all documents with you and it saves paper - one niggle, it would be even more convenient if on my iPad it could be viewed in landscape format not just portrait - any chance of this ?
